Carroll & Meynell Site Transformer 1.5 kVA 230V AC Primary 110V (55V-0V-55V) Secondary 16A Stand Alone IP44 122-6714

The RS PRO 122-6714 Site Transformer is a heavy-duty, safety isolating transformer designed to supply site and portable equipment with reliable, reduced low-voltage power. With a power rating of 1.5 kVA, it operates from a 230 V AC mains primary and delivers a secondary output of 110 V (center-tapped at 55V-0V-55V), facilitating safe operation of tools and devices on industrial, construction, or commercial sites.

This transformer features dual 16A output sockets compliant with BS EN 60309 standards, enabling multiple tools or devices to be powered simultaneously. The device incorporates robust protection measures, including a hand-resettable 6A thermal magnetic trip and comprehensive thermal overload protection, providing enhanced safety against surges or overloading.

The enclosure is manufactured from glass reinforced polyester (GRP), ensuring both mechanical resilience and IP44 ingress protection. This material resists the harsh impacts, dust, and splashes found on active job sites. The compact, stand-alone housing is practical for on-site deployment and relocation, with overall dimensions of 195 x 195 x 265 mm and a manageable weight of 12 kg.

For convenience, the transformer is equipped with a 2-meter input cable terminating in a standard UK BS1363 13A plug. Its continuous operation rating is 1.65 kVA; for intermittent use (25% duty cycle, equating to 5 minutes on and 15 minutes off), it can supply up to 3.3 kVA, accommodating most high-demand portable equipment.

RS PRO’s design complies with key safety standards such as BS EN 61558, BS EN 61558-20-23, and BS EN 60529, and offers center-tapped earth wiring as mandated for safety on site. Typical applications include the reliable supply of power to portable tools in construction, renovation, manufacturing, and outdoor event setups where compliance and personnel safety are paramount.

This model is particularly valued for delivering durable, weather-resistant operation with rigorous circuit protection. Its inclusion of both thermal and magnetic trip mechanisms means minimal downtime and rapid reset in the event of a temporary overload.

RS PRO’s Site Transformer 122-6714 is a trusted backbone for industrial power distribution wherever 110 V compliant electrical supply is required for personnel and equipment safeguarding in challenging site environments.
